What we can confirm
Code DI SP, from the manufacturer's own documentation
A code is only meaningful together with the machine showing it — the same digits mean different things on different equipment.
The code
DI SP
The dispenser chute is blocked with ice, and the maker names the three ordinary reasons: a machine that is not used much, temperature that moves, and power that goes out. All three are South Florida in one sentence. A cabinet in a second home or a rental between tenancies makes ice nobody takes, it welds itself into a block around the auger, and the first person to press the paddle finds a machine that alarms instead of dispensing.

What it narrows down to
Indicates there is ice jammed in the chute. An alarm will sound when a cube is stuck in the chute too long. Ice has melted and frozen around the auger due to infrequent use, temperature fluctuations, and/or power outages.

What else belongs to the refrigerators
On this make a code belongs to the appliance rather than to a product line. These are the other conditions this machine can display, and the models that can show this one — a display often has more than one thing to say, and the model number decides what any of it costs to put right.
Other codes this appliance can display

What DI SP means on this make

The other ways this one is printed
DI SP · DISP
The same condition is printed differently on different panels of the same make, and every spelling the maker publishes for it is above. Whichever of them you searched for, this is the right page.
Where this appears, and why not to clear it
On the appliance's own display, as a short single code — a letter and a number, or two letters. Nothing alternates and nothing arrives in halves on this make, so what the panel shows is the whole of it. Photograph it before you cut the power. This maker's own answer to most of these is thirty seconds at the breaker, and that is worth following once — but a display that has been cleared has taken the evidence with it, and there is no way to ask the machine for it again.
What to do about it
- Take the bin out, empty it and let it thaw completely — not in the freezer.
- Wipe the bin dry before it goes back. Water left in it refreezes into the same block by morning.
- Clear any cubes wedged between the ice maker and the back of the bin.
- If the household uses little ice, take a cupful every few days rather than letting it stand. It is the cheapest prevention there is for this one.
Where this goes next
The job this usually becomes is diagnostic visit, and that page carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes, reminders and settings rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call (305) 615-5496 and describe what the panel is doing before booking anything.
